The absence of Arturo vidal of America Cup It was one of the most controversial topics on the list of Ricardo Garecasince in his process he has not had one of the great references of the Chilean team in the last 15 years.
An issue that Carlos Caszely addressed in Círculo Central, where he even named Caludio Bravo as one of the reasons why King was not summoned to the continental tournament.
Asked if he was left out due to the issue of dressing room leadership, Chino responded “It is one of the options” and then expanded on the topic.
“Just as Vidal has a good relationship with Almirón in Colo Colo, Bravo has a very good relationship with the national team coach. So they are hypotheses that one is looking at from the outside, that he begins to speculate as a fan of the national team, as a fanatic,” he confessed.
“Why one goes and another doesn’t. Why if Bravo comes, Vidal doesn’t go. Why does Gareca prefer Bravo, or this type of player, and not others,” he added bluntly.
Vidal’s vacation
Caszely also said that Vidal already knew that Gareca was not going to consider him for his Copa América process. “If Arturo wanted to be there, he didn’t go on vacation. “He stayed here training,” he added.
He also indicated that “Vidal is tired of the national team, he has been a winner for years, he may prefer other things. He is not 20 years old.”
“It would undoubtedly have been a contribution from football, although it is not the same as before, but as time has passed (this year) it has improved.”
He also indicates that it is important “for the environment, for the dressing room, it gives it another category. It’s like before, when they said, be careful, we’ll play against Pelé or Maradona and when they weren’t there, it’s like how delicious.”
